I gave up coffee recently. I started drinking coffee daily at the age of sixteen, and it became an addiction. It all started when I wanted to stay awake and study for an exam. I totally regret drinking coffee for eighteen years. My health is much better after I quit coffee. I used to frequently get heartburn and mouth ulcers when I was drinking coffee. I also suffered from anemia because coffee and tea reduce the absorption of iron in your intestine.

I've never had coffee until a few years ago, when I started testing it. My overall takeaway is that it leaves me with less energy, and makes me more tired and less energetic about life and all the things I'm focusing on. I recommend you try cutting out this dangerous drug - try going a week without it. Being addicted to or reliant on any drug is terrible. You don't have to cut it out completely, but just try and see for yourself how you feel.

@shelleyhender8537 18 күн бұрын

Try combining half decade and half regular strength when brewing, this should help any symptoms/side effects. You can also adjust varying amounts of caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee, according to your body’s reaction. Try not to drink coffee after 3:00PM. I can drink it much later without experiencing side effects…including insomnia. Yet, my brother cannot tolerate any amount of coffee, so I looked into Green and Black Tea, as well as, other caffeinated options on his behalf. Strangely, I discovered my brother is able to drink Green and Black Tea…yet…I cannot touch Green Tea without experiencing severe side effects…ranging from migraine headaches, nausea/vomiting, and severe joint pain - to name a few. Scientific research has demonstrated coffee to be effective in preventing multiple diseases…Alzheimer’s, Chronic Constipation, and Colon Cancer, among many others. Cheers!🇨🇦☺🇨🇦

@@ericrydman7098 In India, 30 years ago, when I was a primary school going kid, we used to watch BBC to learn English pronunciations. Inherently we got exposure to world affairs. As you said it became an infotainment channel now. Now Palki Sharma like journalists are forging ahead. Did BBC accept defeat and moved into infotainment space??

I went through the same thing as you but I only found out I was actually deficient in other minerals and vitamins. I began consuming Zinc and vitamin c in the morning and I no longer have headaches! You should give it a go if your migraine persist.

@gazzyb85 13 күн бұрын

The migraine is likely due to coffee addiction and its withdrawal effects. It is very common to experience a headache when you start to withdraw from coffee, even after just a few hours without it. Drinking coffee again can relieve the headache. This occurs because caffeine blocks adenosine receptors in the brain, and during withdrawal, the accumulated adenosine exerts its effects more strongly.

@suefountain2119 13 күн бұрын

I don’t know if other people have similar experiences. I’ve been struggling with my depression for years until I stopped drinking coffee. I woke up early in the morning and couldn’t falling back asleep when I took coffee. This made me much easier to be angry and depressed. In the long term, it really affected to me maybe due to my personal body conditions.

Coffee is also good for asthma. I once drank a cup of coffee before shoveling the snow in sub-zero temperatures. I usually get weather-induced asthma when it exposed to cold air. After drinking coffee, I didn’t get a touch of asthma at all as I shoveled the snow.
